The Turbine Business Operation (TBO) of General Electric offers the only all-GE LM2500 and LM5000 gas turbine system which feature aeroderivative gas turbines based on the highly efficient CF6 engine family manufactured by GE's Aircraft Engine Group. The system and packaging are designed and manufactured by the Turbine Business Operation utilizing extensive heavy-duty gas turbine experience. Both of these gas turbines combine the latest technology in advanced cooling with corrosion-resistant materials and coatings to maximize reliability, parts life, adn time between major inspections and overhauls. In simple-cycle or in large baseload steam turbines. The performance and emissions of these gas turbiness will be discussed. To further improve efficiency and reduce cost per kilowatt, GE has introduced both the LM2500 and the LM5000 in STIG (STeam-INjected Gas) turbine cycles. The configuration and performance of these cycles will be reviewed.
